The seamless integration of Pixelmetrix's monitoring solution, DVStation, and Barco's high quality control room display, iStudio, provides unparalleled information on overall broadcast quality.
As the broadcast engineer's multi-channel and multi-facility responsibilities increase, it becomes essential to streamline the methods needed to manage the quality of service on regional, national and global levels.
Combining the strengths of Statmon Technologies' Axess control and management products and the power of Pixelmetrix DVStation's preventive test and monitoring solutions, a highly scaleable architecture is created using a common monitoring point to monitor and manage the integrity of the DTV broadcast service.
"Our market research continues to reinforce the idea of the need for an all-in-one solution to measure, manage, control and maintain the quality of service of the DTV broadcast stream from the studio through the transmitter," states Russ Read Statmon Technologies executive vice president business -development, "By combing technologies with Pixelmetrix, we can increase broadcast operation efficiencies while reducing cost and demands on engineering resources." Danny Wilson, Pixelmetrix CEO adds, "We are enthusiastic about this new relationship with Statmon as we believe the combination of the extensive measurements offered by DVStation perfectly complement their superior monitoring and control functionality." "We believe that broadcasters will greatly benefit from getting a unified global view of their network status through the combination of the advanced measurements and alarms seamlessly integrated into the Statmon Axess platform," says Wilson.
Statmon products uses the power of Internet Protocol (IP), which allows operators, of any technical level, to fully monitor and control equipment (RF controls, HVAC systems, security alarms, tower lights, etc) including single or multiple transmitters at a single site.
Statmon systems can be remotely monitored using a standard web browser or by any computer connected to the network or Internet.
